Pine Grove Mennonite Church (Alliance of Mennonite Evangelical Congregations, formerly General Conference Mennonite Church), located at Bowmansville, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, had its begin­ning in 1848, when certain members were excommunicated from the Mennonite Church congregations for bringing suit in protest against the state's taking over the schools. In 1852 they organized a congregation, and in 1854 dedicated a new meetinghouse. A tablet originally facing the highway, bearing the legend, "Pine Grove Fersamling House 1854," is now in the church. Ministers who have served are William Shelly 1856-58, Solomon Ott 1859-1913, Raymond Stubbs 1929-1948, Leroy Albright 1950-1953, and John Wesley Muffley 1953-1955. In 1957 the membership was 42, with Howard T. Landes as pastor.

In 2002 the congregation became one of the charter members of the Alliance of Mennonite Evangelical Congregations (AMEC).
